FanDuel DFS Guards
Russell Westbrook - PG, vs POR ($13,100)
This recommendation needs to explanation. Russell Westbrook gets another great matchup tonight, this time against the Portland Trailblazers, and on a short, three-game slate, he needs to be rostered in both 50/50 contests and tournaments. In his last game against the Trailblazers, Westbrook posted over 60 fantasy points. In the game after that, he posted over 80 fantasy points. The consistency is there. The upside is there. Do not hesitate to roster him.
Seth Curry - SG, vs LAL ($6,200)
Seth Cury is one of the better guard options on the board tonight. He has been hitting value consistently with over 25 fantasy points in six consecutive games. In those six games, he has over 30 fantasy points in three of them. The Los Angeles Lakers are horrible defensively, and Curry should be able to take advantage of that. His price tag is very reasonable, and he can be rostered in both 50/50 contests and tournaments.
FanDuel DFS Forwards
Enes Kanter - PF, vs POR ($5,800)
The forward positions tonight are rather bleak, so Enes Kanter finds his way onto this recommendation list as the best forward option on the board. He has at least 30 fantasy points in three of his last five games, posting over 29 fantasy points against the Utah Jazz, but not hitting that 30 fantasy point bench mark. The Portland Trailblazers are one of the fastest teams in the league, which should benefit Kanter, who is a very athletic big man. Kanter has great upside, and his consistency is almost there. Roster him in all leagues on a short, three-game slate.
TJ Warren - SF, vs WAS ($5,600)
TJ Warren is not a very high-upside small forward option tonight, but he is very consistent, making him great for cash games. In his last seven games, he has over 25 fantasy points in all of them. In those seven games, he has over 30 fantasy points in three. For his price tag, that is solid production. The Washington Wizards are going to push back when the Phoenix Suns attempt to push the pace of this game forward. That will benefit Warren. Again, on a short, three-game slate, fantasy owners can not be picky. Roster Warren in all leagues.
FanDuel DFS Centers
Alan Williams - C, vs WAS ($5,500)
Alan Williams is still the best center option on the board. He is consistently hitting value, posting over 30 fantasy points in four of his last five games. The Phoenix Suns are finally allowing him to play around 30 minutes per game, and the Washington Wizards are not going to slow him down. With 1.2 fantasy points per minute on the season, Williams is bound to hit value in 30 minutes of court time. Roster him in both 50/50 contests and tournaments.
